Check your coolant level first and engine oil level also and get back with findings

Water level between min & max. Oil level same
That much smoke it’s undrivable smells of oil

White smoke usually signifies coolant burning in engine or fuel injector faulty .From what you describe it sounds like injector over fueling .
